Unsaid

Here are the lyrics and changes to the song I wrote for Sarah Rees Brennan's contest to win an ARC of Untold.

The song contains spoilers for Unspoken!

Unsaid

Am
Once you were all that I needed,
    C
Your voice in my mind my best friend.
        Fm
You were comfort, connection, and laughter,
E
Love without beginning or end.

Am
Get out of my head.
    C
Get out of my head.
    Fm
Get out of my head.
    Am
Don't leave me alone.

Am
You think that our bond left me open,
     C
A book you had already read.
          Fm
But you can't understand my perspective;
    E
You don't know the things left unsaid.

Am
Get out of my head.
    C
Get out of my head.
    Fm
Get out of my head.
    Am
Don't leave me alone.
         Em         G              Am
Please don't ever leave me alone.

Am
The silence now smothers me,
Am
Drowning, surrounding me,
Dm                      Am
Loneliness pulls me down fast.
Am
You broke all your promises,
Am
Left me to deal with this,
Dm                       Am
Like you'd forgotten our past.

Am
I thought I would be in control now,
    C
The only voice left in my head.
    Fm
Your absence has left me unravelled,
      E                                    Am
Unfeeling, unsure, tears unshed.

Am
Get out of my head.
    C
Get out of my head.
    Fm
Get out of my head.
    Am
Don't leave me alone.
         Em         G              Am
Please don't ever leave me alone.

Am
Get out of my life.
    C
Get out of my way.
    Fm          Em
You left me alone
           G          Am
And it's better this way.
